Tonic Please,
I hope though you wont go into a interview and say the reason for doing ATC is because I cannot get a flying job !!
ATC is a great Career choice , the majority of us actually want to be ATCOS and are not frustrated Pilots, please whatever you do don't think of us as a poor second choice.
To become an ATCO you need a lot of dedication and must accept a lot of knocks , many don't succeed. So before thinking of it as some alternative to flying I would suggest you try a visit to an ATC unit and see if it it was you really want.
Good Luck in your career choice.
